Description
These 2 tests are failing for the hs snapshot job:

FAILED: runtime/8007320/ConstMethodTest.java
@Named(value="aName") not equal to @Named(value=aName)

FAILED: runtime/RedefineTests/RedefineAnnotations.java:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Expected "@TestAnn(site=classTypeParameter)", got "@TestAnn(site="classTypeParameter")"
Comments
The fix for JDK-8162817 improved the toString output of annotation objects. Tests relying on the old toString output (also see JDK-8163113) need to be updated.
